Sosnoff’s mission in life is to show traders how to make money by focusing on probabilities and strategies that can shift the odds in their favor. He believes that traditional financial-news organizations mostly sell fear of failure, while his fledgling outfit emphasizes opportunity. “We make crazy fun of fear,” says Sosnoff.
